This is really really awesome – I love the pixel art/animations. Excellent work! Would be cool to maybe be able to upgrade the radius of light on the motor home, or perhaps some with some unique abilities. Definite thumbs up on Greenlight from me.

Hey, thanks, man! Yeah, upgrading the van is a cool idea. We have only one upgrade concerning the van in the jam version (Motorhome Repairman!) but as you point out, improving its different characteristics would be great. Thanks again for the interest and the thumbs up on Greenlight!

I have an idea for a van upgrade. Maybe allow your van to ram into undead for damage so you’re not entirely defenseless when you run out of monsters. And maybe a Right Click To Move for the van and Left Click to Move for all to make the van more controllable.

you sucks; what do you even understand about a creative process? about an artistic feeling of create and share some simply story game with people? your easy words and creapy easy position of critic with empty hands and empty brain make us sick; what did you expect from the game ? to fill out your emptiness? keep trying baby u r far away from home or even a pixel.

Actually, my analytical skills are spot on. Try getting an upgrade and quickly clicking accept. You’ll use one of your crucial upgrades on a wasted one. Not to mention there’s little to no way to get barbed wire, which is a staple to make any monster. Yes, games are art, but you have to know your brushstrokes before you paint a masterpiece.

Tyler, we are working on balancing the game (and fleshing it out). The upgrade you mention adds HP to your van. Concerning the van, we are going to make some changes, so as not to leave it defenseless in case your army is gone. Barbed wire, yeah. We are balancing that too (recovering barbed wire from the dead ones was our first attempt to do this). Please have in mind that this is the jam version (made just in two weeks). Full game will have these things and many more addressed (along lots of new content, story mode and so). Cheers and thanks for playing!

Lvl 14 with 464 kills. Was fun, but it got monotonous around kill 200. There needs to be more upgrades (light larger, faster RV, possible slow HP recovery) and more variety in enemies. Keep up the fine work!

Thanks David! We are working on it! The full release is going to have new units, new cooking system (recipes to discover!), side and main quests, improved item drops logic and more apocalyptic madness!

In the next update we will address the “dog-get-stuck-on-the-rv” issue among other improvements. And weather! We have some surprises concerning weather.

A cooking system and item drop logic? Very impressed. Can’t wait to see them. Also, can you work on getting barbed wire a little more than using random dice rolls? It makes the game feel more chance-based than skill-based.
